The work aimed to maximize the recovery of iron values by upgrading to a high-grade product suitable for steelmaking industry. The received ore contains 1.30% Cu, and 49.50% Fe. Research was conducted on two size fractions: A (-3.35+0 mm) and B (-0.425+0 mm), as a product of grinding the crushed ore until to reach a size fraction of containing 60% of particles < 75 μm. Comparing the mass yields as the distribution of copper and iron by magnetic and non-magnetic fractions, the better results is achieved on the finer size fraction at the magnetic field of 7.15 x 10-4T. Under that condition, the magnetic fraction, has a mass yield of 23.43 %, containing 74.86% Fe and 0.2% Cu. The magnetic fraction, with 74.86% Fe, can be used as a raw material in iron metallurgy.encopperMCM oreironmagneticseparationconferenceObject
